Jarrold's London Dry Gin is an English gin distilled in Chichester and produced by Jarrold's Gin, a small independent distillery founded by Jamie and Nichola Jarrold. Established in 2018, the distillery reflects a contemporary approach to traditional gin production, combining classical London Dry principles with a distinctive botanical selection influenced by personal experience and travel.

The gin is produced in small batches using copper pot stills, following a method that remains faithful to the London Dry category. This means that all botanicals are distilled together, without post-distillation flavoring, ensuring clarity and precision in the final spirit. The founders focused on building a recipe that preserves the structural integrity of juniper while introducing a noticeable citrus and spice dimension.

The botanical composition includes juniper berries, coriander seeds, angelica root and cardamom, supported by grains of paradise and calamus root. A distinctive element of the recipe is the inclusion of Persian lime, which contributes a bright and slightly exotic citrus profile. This choice is directly linked to the inspiration drawn from Middle Eastern flavors and reflects the intention to create a gin with a recognizable yet slightly unconventional character.

On the nose, the gin presents a clean and expressive profile led by juniper, followed by fresh citrus notes and a subtle aromatic spice. The palate is structured and dry, with juniper remaining central while citrus elements provide lift and freshness. The spice components develop gradually, adding warmth and complexity without overwhelming the balance. The texture is firm and slightly oily, consistent with its higher alcohol content.

The finish is long and dry, with lingering peppery spice and citrus zest. Jarrold's London Dry Gin is particularly well suited to classic serves such as a gin and tonic or a Gimlet, where its citrus forward profile can be highlighted. Its structure also makes it a suitable base for more spirit driven cocktails.
